I am reading an apparently British electronics text with
schematics.
schematics.
Some schematics label resistors with 1k0 or 1k1 and
capacitors with such values as 2u2.
What do these trailing numbers mean? If I have ever seen
them before it was in college, and you know how long ago
that was! :)
Email might be better, unless this is not an obvious answer.
Thanx!

1k0 means 1.0 k
1k1 means 1.1 k
similarly, 2u2 means 2.2 uF
